It's through the UN that worldwide economic sanctions are being created drawing the noose tighter and tighter around the necks of countries like N. Korea and Iran. How else would we be able to at least slow down their militaristic actions? Without the UN and its powers, it's very possible that Iran would have plenty of nukes a;ready and NK would be able to send rockets into Kansas City.

Is the UN perfect? Of course not, but don't ignore the good they do in favor of right wing propaganda points.

According to CNN, China is getting fed up with the whackjob in N. Korea. You may see them step away at some point, if it gets too bad. "China is a great power that is increasingly concerned with its standing in the world, and with cultivating "soft power." Beijing's support for North Korea's ruthless, bloody regime -- that attacks its neighbors, and brutalizes its people at home -- only draws attention to China's own human rights failings, and undermines China's soft power. Because the specter of North Korea's collapse could potentially destabilize the Korea peninsula, Beijing may continue to shield Pyongyang. But the two countries' increasingly divergent interests suggest that China's dissatisfaction with North Korea is only likely to grow."
